Novelist Jonathan Coe, author of a 'Like A Fiery Elephant - The Story of B S Johnson' joins Julia Jordan and Philip Tew, joint editors of Johnson's work, to discuss one of post-war Britain's most experimental writers.

Among Johnson's best-known works is the novel 'London Consequences' consisting of a palimpsest of chapters passed between a range of participating authors, and edited by Margaret Drabble and Johnson himself.

In 1969, his work 'The Unfortunates' was published in a box with no binding, inviting readers to assemble the book in the order they chose.

The speakers discuss Johnson's life and his growing influence on succeeding generations.
